Fun with Ammo
Just thought I’d share some photos of Ammo the Dachshund. He’s been braving the winter cold with me at the barn in his three (yes 3) winter coats. I think he’s longing for summer too. Here’s some cute shots of him from the past week….I just love that little dog.

“I think it broke mom!”
Ammo starts dog training classes with me in March, and I can’t wait! I think it will be a great experience for him and I’m looking forward to transitioning him into other things, perhaps agility or maybe even flyball. He’s so smart I’m sure he could do anything. The tricky part will be channeling that Dachshund stubbornness in him. If you’ve ever owned a Dachshund you know what I’m talking about. Ammo is my very first Dachshund and I never imagined what a difficult breed they could be. He challenges me everyday, sometimes he frustrates me to no end….but for some reason his antics make me love him even more. I think I will forever be a “Dachshund Person” just like I will forever be a “Chincoteague Pony Person”.
I’m hoping to do some updates on Ammo when he begins his training classes (I also plan to use clicker training in them). And if I get myself in gear, I also plan to keep working on Ammo’s painting training so he can join the Trick Ponies in creating masterpieces. I will keep you posted!

I’m so far behind on reading blogs, so that’s why I haven’t been commenting, but I am reading your posts. I’m with you on the winter blues. We were actually having some decent weather for the past few days but the rain has moved back in today. The yard and pasture are turning into a muddy swamp. Sigh.
Ammo is soooo cute in those pictures. I can’t wait to hear about his first training class.
hi ammo! I posted a reply over at kalyxcornucopia but wasn’t sure if you like to go back and read comments (I personally rarely do when I leave a comment!), so I thought I’d just say hi here and send some twinsie love over your way!
Oooh, clicker training. funny I never was totally coordinated enough for that!
hugs,.
